Hello
Ex-fiancee moved out. Left stuff behind. How long until I can sell it or keep it as my own? Do I have to notify them of my intent?

Re: Hello
Because the fiancee moved out and left the stuff behind, it would be considered abandoned. You could treat the stuff as your own and dispose of it accordingly, however, the better thing to do, is to send the person a note saying that you "left these items when you left and I am going to give the stuff away or keep it or sell it" unless you come and get it immediately or make some arrangement satisfactory to you.
